Hi,

Is there an FTP library that I can use with D? If not, how can I build one?
Since I'm a beginner, please guide my way.

Thanks in advance.

It's worth asking what he's using it for first. Maybe he's writing an ftp client for fun, or working with a server or web service he doesn't control that can only be accessed via ftp?

Hi,

I'm developing a web development IDE with D/GtkD. Many people around me
requested
an FTP feature and I also think it would be good to have one in the IDE. So
currently I need a way to download/upload files to web host, create or delete
new
directories, etc.

In general, any library you can use for C you can use directly from D.

If nothing has changed Tango has an FTP module. It's quite low level compared to how it used to look.
